Christmas Gift Ideas for Toddlers

With Christmas fast approaching, you might have started eyeing gifts already. But what do you get the person — or toddler — who has everything?

While it can feel like the little ones in our lives are already flush with stuff, there’s always room for one more thing.

Whether you’re spoiling them with a little something for their stocking or looking for a special present to make their day, Purebaby is here to help.

Find the perfect Christmas gift for the toddler or little explorer in your life with this guide.

Toddler clothes: everyday and special occasion

One of the simplest Christmas gift ideas for toddlers is clothes. And as we know, it’s something they can always use more of. Between their never-ending growth spurts and having too much fun making a mess, there’s no such thing as too many outfits.

Purebaby’s linen blend overalls make the best Christmas gifts for toddler boys who need durable, everyday clothes. Otherwise, our deliciously colourful Fiesta Striped Pinnie is a favourite for girls. Get into the festive spirit with Purebaby’s Christmas collection, including headbands, elf hats, and summer PJs.

Christmas is the perfect opportunity to gift swimwear. Fun summer options like hooded towels, broad-brimmed sun hats, legionnaires caps, and rashies are guaranteed to be enjoyed over the holidays — and beyond. And it’s a great choice whether you’re looking for Christmas gifts for toddler girls or boys.

Toys and fun gifts

If there’s one thing that children love to receive on Christmas, it’s toys. And toddlers are no exception. Soft toys, dress-ups, musical instruments, stacking cubes and learning gadgets are fun items you can wrap up to make them happy.

Books

A book is an excellent present that will be enjoyed through many bedtime routines. Even better, a good book makes the best Christmas gift for toddler girls and boys, suiting all ages, too. Books can be educational, fun, engaging, and heart-warming, depending on what you think would suit your little reader.

Craft and Art

To encourage creativity, there are plenty of cool Christmas gifts for toddlers to make. Arts and craft supplies can keep them busy for hours, preparing unique gifts for the special people in their lives. When it comes to creating, you can never have too many paints and paintbrushes, colouring books and craft kits. As always, though, make sure they’re age-appropriate.

Blankets and Bedding

Sleeping bags, sheet sets, coverlets and cuddly blankets are all great ideas for keeping your little one cosy. Looking for Christmas gift ideas for toddlers in childcare? A new blanket or sleeping bag is the perfect thing to keep them comfy at nap time while they’re there.

Bath time fun

There’s no better time than bath time, and toddlers will gladly spend hours in the tub if you let them. Why not gift them some bath toys and accessories at Christmas to make it more special? Elevate their bath game with a snuggly bathrobe, a bath mitt for cleaning, or bath crayons and toys to increase the fun.

Feeding and eating

Feeding accessories are the perfect pick for a Christmas gift that’s equal parts practical and amusing. They also teach independence as your toddler learns to feed themselves. Our top picks in this category are personalised cups, toddler-friendly cutlery, or a matching silicone feeding set they can use every night at dinner.

Christmas gifts for toddlers: things to keep in mind

Shopping for toddlers is a lot of fun, but it does require some thought. Keep these points in mind when choosing a gift for the little one in your life.

  • Durability: In all the excitement, toddlers can be pretty rough with their toys, so consider a durable gift. Shop for durable materials and quality construction that will stand the test of time, regardless of the gift.
  • Educational factor: Sometimes, the best types of Christmas gifts for toddlers are those that teach something and are fun. Consider the educational benefits of a toy or book when weighing up the best pick.
  • Materials: Toddlers also deserve to play with stuff that’s good for them, which means choosing toddler-friendly materials. Seek out gifts made with natural and non-toxic materials, like wool, cotton, and non-coated wood.
  • Special interests: Is your little one loving dinosaurs right now? Perhaps they enjoy dressing up and playing make-believe. Think about what your child is into and let that lead you toward a gift they’ll truly cherish.
